Winter is coming, time to overclock your computer.

That picture is a bit older. Must be one of the first 2600K together with 480 GTX or something like that.
What you see there is evap temp - directly from the copper that cools the CPU.

Usually you have 20K higher temp on the CPU in idle - so something around -30°C idle and -25°C load.

Here is some real frost :D
